Free Big Data Analytics Handbook

Have you ever wondered what the deal was behind all the hype of “big data”? Well, so did we. In 2014, data science hit peak popularity, and as graduates with degrees in statistics, business, and computer science from UC Berkeley we found ourselves with a unique skill set that was in high demand. We recognized that as recent graduates, our foundational knowledge was purely theoretical; we lacked industry experience; we also realized that we were not alone in this predicament. And so, we sought out those who could supplement our knowledge, interviewing leaders, experts, and professionals – the giants in our industry. What began as a quest for the reality behind the buzzwords of “big data” and “data science,” The Data Analytics Handbook, quickly turned into our first educational product of our startup Leada (see www.teamleada.com). Thirty plus interviews and four editions later, the handbook has been downloaded over 30,000 times by readers from all over the world In them, you’ll discover whether “big data” is overblown, what skills your portfolio companies should look for when hiring a data scientist, how leading “big data” and analytics companies interview, and which industries will be most impacted by the disruptive power of data science. We hope you enjoy reading these interviews as much as we enjoyed creating them!
